.SH NOTES
+.SS Concatenating compressed files
+Just like with .gz and .bz2 files, it is possible to concatenate .xz files as
+is. The decompressor can decompress a concatenated file as if it was a
+regular single-stream .xz file. As mentioned above, .lzma files cannot be
+concatenated.
.SS Compressed output may vary
The exact compressed output produced from the same uncompressed input file
may vary between XZ Utils versions even if compression options are identical.
